Dua Lipa said “I do” in words borrowed from Bianca Jagger’s playbook. The “Houdini” singer, 30, married actor Callum Turner, 36, on Sunday at London’s Old Marylebone Town Hall. Rather than a traditional wedding dress, she opted for the skirt suit and statement hat made famous when she married Mick Jagger in Saint-Tropez in 1971. While Jagger chose Yves Saint Laurent, Ripa turned to Schiaparelli Haute Couture. Her custom ivory blazer, designed by Danielle Rosebery, featured a curved hem and gold bijou buttons with surrealist motifs (among them a Pegasus with eyes and wings), and was worn over a matching…
The former executive producer of “60 Minutes” took a moment Monday night to sound the alarm about what’s happening to the long-running news magazine and the people currently running CBS News under its newest executive producer. “CBS News and 60 Minutes are institutions, and partisans and ideologues should not be employed,” said Bill Owens, who ended his tenure as head of 60 Minutes after seeing new efforts by CBS News parent Paramount to disrupt the show. Owens made the remarks at an awards ceremony held by the New York Press Club following efforts by CBS News Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss to…

When “Insidious” and “Saw” filmmaker James Wan had his first Zoom meeting with Cain Parsons, creator of the online monster “Backrooms,” they had his father, not the YouTuber’s manager or agent, in attendance. “I didn’t know Kane was still in high school until I contacted him,” Wang admits. Parsons was only 16 at the time, but Wang believed that Backrooms, a series of viral “found footage” shorts set in a seemingly infinite liminal space, had all the ingredients to make a compelling feature film. “It felt unique. It felt different than anything we’ve seen before,” Wang said. He would later…
Britney Spears posted a cryptic message about a “mean girl” after her DUI arrest and stint in rehab. “If you’re one of those mean girls in the audience pointing and laughing and looking at your phone, look up today,” the pop star captioned a recent Instagram photo of herself apparently as a toddler. “River has a message for you all!!!!!!” she said, referring to her pen name and Instagram alter ego, Zaira Maria River Red.

The show’s creator, Sam Levinson, revealed the actress’ reaction to her character, Cassie Howard, being an OnlyFans model on Monday’s episode of The New York Times’ “Popcast.” “It’s funny. When I first wrote this, I thought, ‘Maybe we could shoot all of this and not have any nudity. Maybe there’s a way to avoid certain things?'” the showrunner, 41, recalled. Sam Levinson shared Sidney Sweeney’s “game” reaction to her “Euphoria” character Cassie Howard’s OnlyFans story. HBO Showrunner Sam Levinson (pictured above on April 7) originally wanted to “avoid”…
